I´m developing a system using Visual C++ and FlowChart. I´m having a problem in using the method fitsizetotext. I will explain the problem bellow:

- Such element of my diagram, has a principal box and inside i put a box to display the text. The size of text is 124 characters and i want the box has a ideal size to display all the text. But, i don´t had success with the method fitsizetotext.

What can i do to get the box with a good size to display all the text?

Thanks for your reply but I think that i didn´t express correctly.

I have a princpal box and inside this, i put 2 boxes in each half. In the first half, a put a text that has 124 characters but the size of a principal box doesn´t contain all the text and i want the box has a size that show all the text automatically. Each box in my diagram should have this comportament then, all the boxes will have your size according with the text in side.

P.S: How can i put a image in this post? 

Thanks! I´m in my job and all sites of the same type of flickr are blocked.

Some suggestion for my problem with flowchart?

Thanks for yout attention.

I´m using the class BOX and BOXITEM to generate the diagram and these classes don´t have the method indicated.

I saw in the help and the method ResizeToFitText is to class Table.

The style of the box that i using is tsFitPolyCenter

I put the code of my program bellow to show how i creating the boxes.

//principal box
// Criação do box.
BoxItem box = CreateBox(nX, nY, nWidth, nHeight);
GroupItem g = CreateGroup(box);
box.SetShape(m_shapeRetangular);
box.SetCustomDraw(cdAdditional);
box.SetConstraints(ncMoveDirection, 1);
box.SetLocked(false);
box.SetMnpHandlesMask(0x1FF);
AddTextos(box, strTexto, _T(""));

//internal boxes

// Add text in the internal box
void AddText(BoxItem box, CString texto1, CString texto2)
{
long width = box.GetRight() - box.GetLeft();
long height = box.GetBottom() - box.GetTop();
BoxItem t1, t2, line;

t1 = this->CreateBox(box.GetLeft(), box.GetTop(), width, height/2);
t2 = this->CreateBox(box.GetLeft()+1, box.GetTop()+(height/2)+1, width-1, (height/2)-1);
if (box.GetShape() == m_shapeRetangular)
{
t1.SetShape(GetShapes(_variant_t("Rectangle")));
t2.SetShape(GetShapes(_variant_t("Rectangle")));
}
else if (box.GetShape() == m_shapeOval)
{
t1.SetShape(m_shapeMeiaLuaCima);
t2.SetShape(m_shapeMeiaLuaBaixo);
}

// Texto 1
t1.SetStyle(bsShape);
t1.SetTextStyle(tsFitPolyCenter);
t1.SetTextColor(RGB(0,0,0));
t1.SetText(texto1);
t1.SetTransparent(true);
t1.SetLocked(true);
t1.SetTag(tagDescricaoSucinta);
t1.FitSizeToText();

CY fsize;
fsize.int64 = 80000;

CFontHolder fh1(NULL);
fh1.InitializeFont();
    t1.SetFont((LPDISPATCH)fh1.m_pFont);
t1.GetFont().SetSize(fsize);
    t1.GetFont().SetName(_T("Arial"));

// Texto 2
t2.SetStyle(bsShape);
t2.SetTextStyle(tsFitPolyCenter);
t2.SetText(texto2);
t2.SetTransparent(true);
t2.SetLocked(true);
t2.SetTag(tagEspecificacao);

CFontHolder fh2(NULL);
fh2.InitializeFont();
    t2.SetFont((LPDISPATCH)fh2.m_pFont);
t2.GetFont().SetSize(fsize);
    t2.GetFont().SetName(_T("Arial"));


GroupItem g = box.GetSubordinateGroup();
g.AttachProportional(t1,0,0,100,50);
g.AttachProportional(t2,0,50,100,100);
}

If your aim is to keep the two text boxes the same size, do something like this:

t1.FitSizeToText();
t2.FitSizeToText();
int w = max(t1.Right - t1.Left, t2.Right - t2.Left);
int h = max(t1.Bottom - t1.Top, t2.Bottom - t2.Top);
t1.SetSize(w, h);
t2.SetSize(w, h);
t2.MoveTo(t1.Left, t1.Bottom);
box.SetSize(w, h * 2);

Hi!

The solution give for you helps a lot. But now, i have a new problem that i think has a relation with the solution. Some diagrams are above other lines. I have a example to send and you will see the circle above of line group. -> https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/So1a-DaTxZQATYHrhYmnmlpLwJT5Im4NB-TAiEapas

I got a solution that i increased the tree level in TreeLayout and works well. But i would like a sugestion for dynamic solution without increase the tree level.

Thanks!

Stoyo, thanks for your post
